John Bolton's bombshell book will say Donald Trump offered to halt criminal probes as 'personal favors to dictators he liked' and begged China's president Xi to help him win the 2020 election

John Bolton's bombshell memoir contains new instances of alleged misconduct by President Trump – including agreeing to back off criminal probes as 'personal favors' to certain dictators.

The book also contains a claim that Trump pleaded with Chinese President Xi Jinping to boost U.S. food purchases, describing it in terms of his own election. Trump regularly touts a deal to pause the China trade war as one of his chief accomplishments.

A new book excerpt obtained by the New York Times contains the claim about the criminal probes. Bolton writes that in cases involving China and Turkey, Trump was willing to 'in effect, give personal favors to dictators he liked.'

This is Boltons' OPINION of events.

Even IF this happened bouncing various ideas around isn't criminal and motive and context are important.

Show me where Trump acted on his alleged backing off on criminal probes as personal favors.

Lying cretin. These accusations are beyond incredible and show Bolton needs an EEG stat to determine how far along his dementia has progressed.

Sort of like “I’ll have more flexibility after my re-election”?

First and foremost, she signed a non-disclosure agreement which she broke. That alone shows her dishonestly and lack to follow the covenants SHE agreed to. Dismissing every, single word she utters, or should I say wrote.

Nope. Not always. Biased to the liberals? Oh yeah! It’s amazing what you can find out on their site that’s not being published this side of the pond.

Bolton’s book will also say that Trump once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die. And that, in fact, inspired Johnny Cash to write his famous sing.

The daily mail very often prints bad things about Democrats that no one else does. They are left wing but they do that. This story is about Bolton. Bolton’s story is fake. But Bolton’s accusation is printed here. that’s it.

I believe Bolton said that. I believe he disgusts me and fooled me all these years. And I believe it is false

Bolton’s publisher is a subsidiary of ViacomCBS.

Explains a lot, eh...

Silly DM....haven’t they learned, by now, that ‘bombshells’ don’t work on Teflon Don?

Basically, Bolton’s claim that Trump “begged” Xi to help with the 2020 election was the trade negotiations between the U.S. and China. In Bolton’s mind every president that participates in trade talks during their first term is committing treason because it may help them in their next election campaign.

Sounds to me like PDJT was doing what he said he would do.

Increase our exports and give China a couple of dings along the way.

What a RAT Bolton turned out to be.

Wonder how his book is doing in pre-orders.
Hope it’s a big flop. Liberals don’t BUT BOOKS.

I had thought much better of John Bolton than this. Some of what seems to be incorporated in the book appears to have been deliberate disinformation from Deep State sources, not unlike the Steele “dossier”, a total fabrication from the start.

Notoriety is not at all the same as fame.

Bolton interprets badly. He’s always been out of touch with reality and a terrible loose cannon.
